Experience the best of
Malaga with Withlocals

"Our tour guide, Isabel was not able to meet us and we met with Antonio instead. He was waiting for us when we arrived at the meeting place. He is a seasoned and experienced guide who really knows the town well. He took time to explain the history of the town and all the major landmarks. We especially loved the Alcazaba and adjacent amphitheater. He explained the chronology of occupants from the first group to settle there through all of the 20th century renovations. He also explained the etiology of the towns name : the Phoenicians may have derived the name from their goddess called Malack (sp?) or it could be named after their word for ocean port, Malaka. In either case it is a beautiful city. We also got to go to the Atarazanes market where he knew many vendors and we got to sample olives and pickles garlic. We also sampled salted olive oil almonds from a friendly street vendor. I would highly recommend this tour and would not hesitate to take a different tour With Locals again. "

"it was a perfect tour with a verry nice and lovely person. Isabel was easy to connect too and took us to the real malaga. We highly recommand to book Isabel as your guid! "

"We had a lovely food tour with Miriam in Malaga. Miriam’s so knowledgable about the city, it’s history, places to go, restaurants and tavernas to eat at and all the parks and museums which has made the rest of our break here so easy to visit the best places. The food tour itself was wonderful eating at the lovely places, some off the beaten track and others in the top 10 restaurants to visit. The food was very tasty as was the wine and beer. Miriam was lovely and chatty and her English is brilliant. We highly recommend a tour with Miriam. "

"Isabel was a fabulous guide, and knows about everyone and everything in the City. We visited some amazing secret streets and shops and bars, and tasted wine to die for and gorgeous food. We got a real sense of pride in the heritage and history of Málaga, and a recognition of the more troubled periods over the centuries. We had plenty of time to talk about life at home and life in Spain, which gave us a real understanding of the culture of the city and the country. We had a lovely evening with Isabel which set us up for the rest of our visit! Thank you"

"We really enjoyed our time with Isabel. She took us around Malaga, amending the tour to our previous experiences of the city. Starting at the market was great as we were able to taste some local produce as well as learn about the history of the building and area. From here we visited several areas we had not previously seen. Isabel was very knowledgeable and obviously loved the city. Would recommend this tour and Isabel as a guide."

"We did this tour first thing when arriving to Málaga, and can highly recommend people to do the same. Perfect mix of history, culture and obviously good food and drinks. Based on all the information and history we received we had an easy time planning what we'd like to experience during our stay in this beautiful city. Isabel was very knowledgable and very keen on answering our questions regarding the local culture and history. Since it was a private tour, it was very flexible and easy to adjust the experience according to our preference as we went along. "

"As well as a gastronomic taste of Malaga, Isabel provided us a superb cultural and historical taste of Malaga as well. Isabel was excellent company and showed us parts of Malaga that we wouldn’t have found in a guide book. We would thoroughly recommend her for anyone wanting to explore this fabulous old town. "

"My private tour with Isabel was wonderful. She is a longtime resident of Malaga and knew plenty of its history. She made it a personable experience and had plenty of recommendations. I ran into her two days later on another tour, and she greeted me like a long lost friend."

"Had a great city tour with Miriam. She knew so much about the city. As we walked around she told us so much about what we saw and knowing that we ran late from the Picasso Museum, she made sure to stop for two snacks (highly recommend the horchata drink and the empanada, not what I thought it was going to be but absolutely delicious) and showed us some other yummy stops for later. Took us all around from the city center through the beautiful park and down to the beach....plenty of Instagram worthy pics along the way"

"We had the very lovely and knowledgeable Miriam as our guide and she was fabulous. Would recommend to anyone to do a tour early in their stay as Miriam was able to give us insider knowledge about best places to eat, see etc. tours are private so we were able to adapt to what we liked. Thanks Miriam for showing us your beautiful city. "
